This morning I found three of these very small (few mm) flies on our terrace. I think they might be Dolichopodidae, is that correct? And is it possible to put a genus or perhaps even species name to it?
Thanks in advance!

It's a
Medetera - a rather difficult genus where reliable identification is often based on rather small details of the male genitalia. Very few species are identifiable from photos.

O.k., thank you Kahis. I'm quite satisfied with the genus name.
